The music industry’s biggest night is underway Sunday, as the 2025 Grammys award some of the world’s biggest artists.

Kendrick Lamar’s anthemic “Not Like Us” has already won three Grammy awards in the best rap performance, best rap song and best music video categories, making the Compton-bred rapper a 20-time Grammy winner. Lamar’s gains were revealed during the Premiere Ceremony ahead of the main telecast on Sunday night.

The producer behind the hit, DJ Mustard, accepted the awards on Lamar’s behalf, as the audience in the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles erupted into a thunderous applause. “Not Like Us” is also up for the night’s most coveted awards, record and song of the year.

Beyoncé led the way with 11 Grammy nominations, a career-high, for her country album “Cowboy Carter.” She’s up for record, album and song of the year, plus country album, song, duo performance and more. Billie Eilish, Kendrick Lamar, Post Malone and Charli XCX each have seven nods apiece, followed by Tayor Swift, Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter with six each.

Swift, Eilish, Roan and Carpenter are also up for the Big Three awards of record, album and song of the year. Roan and Carpenter are competing in best new artist alongside Benson Boone, Doechii, Khruangbin, Raye, Shaboozey and Teddy Swims.
